There is nothing about mkv that can't be accomplished with mp4. This notion of tech-superiority/smugness with regards to content that isn't even theirs to begin with is completely insane.

Telling me to buy a different media player or just convert my files isn't going to convince me of anything.

Seems like that is exactly what you're doing.
Someone took the time to explain why people use MKV and you just disagreed with him.
